“We’re done talking philosophy, now it’s time for action”– Well, I would argue

–“We’re done talking philosophy, now it’s time for action”–
Well, I would argue the problem for the right as well as the left is Overdeterminism of religion (right supernatural, left pseuoscientific), bad if not entirely childish philosophy (feminine destructive left, masculine constrictive right), but worse a near total lack of understanding and knowledge of the distribution of human abilities, nature, and competence; A total ignorance of what made us successful vs others; a total ignorance of engineering society via-negativa by law and institutions. In other words childish simplicity.

The reason the right fails is the same the left fails. A failure to propose operational means of running a polity to prevent assymetry of returns between the masculine capitalizing (conservative) and the feminine hyperconsuming (progressive).

The right is as dumb, ignorant, impulsive, and childish as the left. It’s just that the right is correct in diagnosis of those problems of decadence and hyperconsumption the left finds pleasure in.

As for modes of thinking, operations (engineering) human behavior such that we maximize the suppression of the consumptive and the expansion of capitalization.

Science and operationalism tell us only what is true independent of our want or preference. What is good and within our want or preference will forever be the domain of philosophy and rational choice.

The problem then is the false attribution of wisdom to philosophy instead of theology and mythology, the attribution of truth instead of preference and good to philosophy and reason, and the attribution of truth to empirical and correlative science instead of as true as we can testify to at present, when the only truth we can ever know in total is causality (operationalism), which is, at least at the scale of elements comprehensible, even if at present the quantum background and what if anything lies beneath it are beyond our present capacity observe and measure.
